Easy draw, lots of smoke, medium body, cedar, spice, herbal, a hint of sweetness, a bit of pepper on the retro. At 1.25" in I'm digging it so far.
 
FPG OLSU (May ‘98) Montecristo Especial - 7 1/2 X 38 - this was the first Monte I fell in love with after the #2 which is the one that hooked me on Havana cigars in the first place. Copious smoke right off the bat but the first third was a tad dull. Hey, they aren’t all perfect! Second third shows why this is a favorite and the one I smoke more than any other Monte. Leather, raw almonds & apricot! Final third absolute Montecristo heaven. Damn it’s bittersweet finishing a truly magnificent smoke.

Last of the 06’ HU 46.
Life’s to short- smoke em up. I still have an 04 and an 07 fun box untouched- might start smoked ‘em.
 
Another of my no-name seconds, a Connecticut Robusto. Very nice. Cream and cashews (maybe because I had a few cashews before lighting up, I don’t know).

Fancy smokes are great. But sometimes my most enjoyable sticks are these econosticks I don’t remember what they are. 🤣
